Quality Assurance Program: Bituminous Concrete and Central Mix Aggregates

Report No: 81-R18

Published in 1980

About the report:

This report presents the results of a pilot quality assurance program initiated in the Richmond District in 1978. Under this program the producer's control tests are used for the acceptance of central mix aggregate and bituminous concrete and the Department is thus enabled to reduce its testing. The program has proven to be successful and has been extended statewide with the participation of the producers being on a voluntary basis.
